    I had my first day( only a half day :D ) back and we just had eight twenty minute classes after a big start of year speach from our principle. Didn't do all that much,talked about what we would be doing for the year & got homework in Physics & Irish. The day was easy and I got good news,Igot a new English teacher and she seems good,we didn't do ANYTHING in English last year after christmas because our teacher got cancer at during christmas holidays and the sub we got was crap and I forgot to mention I am doing honours for the LC.

    Was allright, didn't get too many lectures about responsiblity and the rest. The teachers respect that it's essentially up to us now.

    Not too much homework but then again we're set in motion while we still have the bonus of momentum working in our favour.

    One exam question in idiot maths and thats it :D
    This weekend, must try and sort out my notes....or lack therefore of


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,252 ✭✭✭Funkstard


    Its been fine; I've had half days all week and got hardly any homework for the weekend. My cousin who did the LC last year is very concerned that teachers haven't piled on the homework already!

    I ight organise my notes this weekend too; my plan is to get notes done on everything before christmas, that way when it comes to revising I'll have everything ready & sorted

    Haha I know what you mean. Maybe they are trying to scare us early with lots of homework. Fair play with the sailing. You like it? I love coaching especially since I get paid to aswell. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 902 ✭✭✭d4gurl


    Omg :eek: Abercrombie why were u up at half nine in the mornin?? lol! i only got up now and i still feel sleepy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,252 ✭✭✭Funkstard


    Every Saturday morning at 10!? Ouch......do you still go out on Fridays?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 719 ✭✭✭CrimE


    Yeah that sounds a bit rough alright!

    I coach 3-6 on saturdays and sometimes on sundays. Leaves the nights free to spend my money :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,946 ✭✭✭D-Generate


    Ha, back to school tomorrow bitches!

    coz i went for a run with my friend at 7am...crazy i no. and i woz out last night too but i crashed at my friends house!! got about 3 hours sleep...so bed early for me tonight!!

    yeah i do it most saturdays...if i can't make it it's ok coz there are about 3 other trainers there anyway usually! but i'm thinking that maybe after christmas i may give it a skip coz i'll need to start studying a bit more...plus its gonna start getting really sh*tty, rough and cold and i'm not up for annoying kids early in the morning in the freezing cold :D yeah i still go out...if im too tired or hungover i just call and say i cant make it :) but i like it coz i get paid and the other trainers are fun to be with!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 902 ✭✭✭d4gurl


    fair play to you!!thats all i can say! :D I could never do that - i value my sleep to much!lol!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    Ha, I went to bed at 7am on friday :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,252 ✭✭✭Funkstard


    What club do you teach in?

    Yeh, there's not many things I could imagine being as bad as teaching little kids sailing in the freezing water on a saturday morning when you're in bits!

    I think the best part of finishing secondary school is mocking those left behind - wear those school uniforms... wear them.

    Ouch yeah you've got us there... :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,181 ✭✭✭abercrombie


    school uniforms arent that bad....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    the main thing i hate about the uniforms are the jumpers.. thats what i dont like. as for the shirt/tie and trousers, thay are grand.. look smart.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,181 ✭✭✭abercrombie


    but the jumpers show where ur from...they're like the most important bit of the uniform lol! skirts aren't too great either tho...omg hve u seen the skirts that they wear in limerick city?? I'm talking sweeping the ground here..they actually walk on them! :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 720 ✭✭✭Ravage1616


    Yeah first time i seen does skirts was abit shocked!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,946 ✭✭✭D-Generate


    I hated jumpers back when I was in primary school but then I had a blazer in secondary school. Very classy looking black number, not that I wore it though. White shirt and tie for me for 6 years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    Well the tie can also identify your schools identity. I'm talking from a practical point of view, the jumpers look and feel like crap.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 719 ✭✭✭CrimE


    Yeah today was roasting and hardly anyone left their jumpers on. They are ok for the winter but in summer a shirt and tie are grand. I reckon the reason that the rest of the uniform is relatively popular in comparison to the jumper is all because of how uncomfortable it is in comparison.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 902 ✭✭✭d4gurl


    No more uniform for me!! woo! Although I have to say it will be such a pain in the neck having to figure out what to wear and blah for the first cuple weeks after that I think I'll just wear whatever!! I'll kinda of miss the old uniform saves a lot of hassle!!

    sounds great! lol

    d4gurl ur totally right bout it saving a lot of hassle...and its equal too and u've nobody ripping the p!$$ outta people who don't wear the "right" clothes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    Thts the reason why they make you wear a uniform, you wont get slagged. Makes sense, but like you'd think people would have a bit more cop on than to slag someones clothes.

    you'd think so wouldn't you...in my school a lot of the girls are really snobby (i know coz i'm friends with most of them...) and non-uniform days are a BIG THING!! you can't jst arrive into school wearing any old thing...you have to have at least 2 designer items on you, minimum...i know its really sad and pathetic like but its like the unwritten code! but i have to admit, since going into 5th year, alot of the girls have started to cop onto themselves and give out about the 2nd/3rd years who act just like they did when they were that age...go figure! ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    yeah I totally can relate. At the moment I am in an all guys school so as you can imagine, it's not exactly like that. But when I was in a mixed school (1st - 3rd) Everyone was like, (guys inc.) "oh look at what X is wearing, you'd think they were homeless" Harsh, but the people who said that were right tools. But it is mainly amongst girls though. Guys tend to just rip the piss out of each other to there faces, have a laugh about it, then forget about it. In some respects it's easy(-ier) been a guy.

I mean man pants from dunnes, out of fashion uggs?? Why oh why?:eek: Hopefully in the institute the girls will break away from that habit!! I just feel like screaming at some of my friends if you want to follow a trend dont follow some muppet who has an orange face, follow those who know a thing or two about fashion like the runways or paris, LA or something! In no way am i promoting sheeps but like im really sick of this stupid class superority(sp?) some people have!! ok rant is now officialy finished!!
